charge ports should always be on the right, because it allows street side charging. VW is the only one who’s got this right.

I’m actually disappointed its not frat-boy humor. Just more of, even when he’s actually pragmatic, its in a way that everyone else has to live with.
We’ve always got his model names for the juvenile humor.
Nah. It was juvenile of them to insist the E had to be a 3, as if children would be the ones buying the cars.
That’s because Ford would have sued the dogshit out them.
What’s wrong with reverse parking?
- Backwards parking is actually easier because your front wheels turn.
- It’s better for your future self. Backing out of a parking spot with reduced visibility is harder and can be dangerous.
- Overall safety. I used to work in a company where reverse parking was mandatory because in case of an emergency the parking lot could be evacuated faster.
- Better visibility when leaving the parking spot is safer for other traffic participants
Very valid points and I park reversed most of the time as well. However slanted parking is quite common in store fronts.
I’m on this level about it: https://matthewdicks.com/2016-8-1-backing-into-a-parking-spot/
If you don’t have to do it for a valid reason (safety), I’d say you are pretty much just inconveniencing everyone around you.
